I am using an external HDD (mybook classic 320 Gb) connected to the USB port, and I am obliged to reconfigure shared folders (the two partitions on the external HDD) each time I connect it. Is there any mean it could be done automatically? Since I am a very newbie in linux stuff, if it is possible could someone explain me how to do it step by step?

Uhm… yess :P I agree its about vague but I think what Sawasie meant is:
He's got an external HDD (MyBook Classico) connected to his MyBook World Edition via USB and he wants to automount it to a shared/PUBLIC folder so he doesnt need manually configure it all the time.

I dont have another Ext.HDD at home so cant realy test it (unless the MyBook supports USB-Sticks), but i guess you will need to configure autofs, and create a mountpoint to a shared folder:
e.g. /shared/PUBLIC/MyExternalHDD

Sorry for not being clear… edgecrush3r is right, I am using a Mybook WORLD EDITION and I want to use the USB port of it. The fact I have a classic mybook as a second drive is just a coincidence.
As far as I remember, USB sticks are supported, if you could test it, it would be great edgecrush3r.
